WHC 2011 - Handle injury and hand relaxation
Brief notes on discussion on handle injury and hand relaxation
1. Loose thumb (with loose plate muscle) - thumb needs extra strength for muscle to hold the thumb straight. Need extra strength for plucking.
2. PROPRICEPTION - what tension for plucking
- Vibration
- Light touch
- Deep touch
- Pain
- Temperature
- Sharp/dull pain
3. Test on control
close the eyes and pluck to see if the location of fingers are controlled.
4. Relax position for palm - keep a hollow in palm
5. Close hand can also create tension. May use pull out to release tension
6. During practice, increase dynamics first, then speed.
